Liposuction can help you to remove stubborn fats from specific parts of your body effectively by sucking out excess fat cells from your body, giving you a slimmer, younger look. Some common areas where liposuction is done are thighs, hips, buttocks, tummy, waist, arms, and the back. The fats in these areas can be removed together or separately. During the procedure, a small incision will be made at the area where you wish the fats be removed, then a small tube is fitted through the skin to suck out unwanted fat cells. Liposuction is usually done on an outpatient basis but may also require overnight stay for larger scale liposuctions.

A facelift is the medical aesthetics procedure done to quite literally lift up the face, tighten our facial skin, and produce a more youthful appearance for our face.
During a facelift process, some of the procedures involved are the removing excess facial skin, tightening tissues, and reshaping the skin on your face and neck.
There are both surgical and non-surgical options (also known as Threadlift) for facelift. Surgical facelift requires 1-2 days of hospital admission, while a non-surgical one can be completed as an outpatient.
Treatment duration: 2-6 hours (surgical), about 1 hour (non-surgical)
You don't necessarily have to go under the knife for a facelift. With the latest treatments and technology, facelifts have become more and more common. If you have sagging or loose skin, a facelift can help you stimulate collagen production tighten your skin for a younger, fresher looking complexion.
In a non-surgical facelift, threads are used to pull the skin. These threads are absorbable by our body, and are the same type of threads as those used to suture cuts on our skin.
These threads pull our skin from the inside to an upwards and inwards direction to lift the skin, contour the face, and enhance facial features.
Facelift is also known as rhytidectomy, a cosmetic surgery procedure that helps give your face a more youthful appearance. What happens during a facelift/face reshaping procedure? Step 1: Anaesthesia Face reshaping is a long procedure, usually about 4 hours give or take. So general anaesthesia is the preferred choice because patients can't stay still for 4 hours under local anaesthesia. During this phase also, a variety of other procedures can be done to further enhance the outcome of the facelift or face reshaping procedure. These include: Facial implants Soft tissue augmentation to recontour your facial structure Resurfacing techniques to improve the tone and texture of your facial skin Wrinkle reduction via injections Step 2: The Incision Depending on the degree of change you'd like to see, your facelift choices include a traditional facelift, limited incision facelift, or a neck lift (this should be decided in the discussion phase pre-surgery!) A facelift incision often begins at the hairline at the temples of your head, and continues around your ears and ends in the lower scalp section. Fats may be sculpted or redistributed around your face, jowls and neck, and underlying tissues can also be repositioned. The deeper layers of your facial skin and muscles are also lifted. Your skin is then re-draped over the uplifted contours and excess skin is trimmed away. A second incision under the chin may be necessary to further improve an aging neck. Step 3: Closing the incisions Sutures or skin adhesives are used to close the incisions. Once these incisions are healed, the incision lines from the facelift procedure are well concealed within the hairline and in the natural contours of the face and ear, so no visible marks on your face! Step 4: See the results The visible improvements of a facelift or face reshaping procedure will appear as the swelling and bruising subside. Your final result should not only restore a more youthful and rested appearance, but also help you feel more confident about yourself!

Do you have an implant that you wish to be removed? Sometimes our implants may not turn out the way we expected it to do, and an implant removal procedure may be required.
Buccal fat is also commonly known as the baby fats on your face or cheeks that don't seem to wear off even with age. If you wish to have a more defined jawbone and more prominent cheekbones, having a buccal fat removal can result in a thinner, more refined face shape. The doctor will remove the buccal fat from the inside of your mouth.
Cheek implants is a facial implant surgery to fill out the cheeks and enhance the shape of the face. This procedure can be used as an anti-aging solution or to have a more satisfactory outlook for your face. High cheekbones can also be created with implants in the upper cheek.

If you find your cheekbone too high or not proportionate with your facial features, cheekbone reduction may be a procedure for you to make the adjustments for a more balanced face.

Chin augmentation can also be done for health purposes, to balance facial features and strengthen the chin line. Patients usually need to stay for at least one night after a chin augmentation procedure. Full recovery period for chin augmentations usually take a month or up to 6 weeks.
Aging is inevitable. Many people that treat aging symptoms (e.g.: wrinkles) opt for anti aging skin care products such as eye cream, face cream, etc. Most of these products are expensive, which is why we rather choose natural ways to slow down conditions associated with aging.
Generally, medical doctors will suggest these to patients: Lifestyle modification Nutritional planning Body and mind regeneration
Everyone experiences aging in a different way and at a different point of time in their lives. Due to different body and mind composition, consultation is important in order to determine the best treatment for anti-aging.
Anti-aging treatments are one of the top procedures done in the medical aesthetics field.
From aging problems like wrinkles and age spots to skin texture problems like sagging skin and large pores, there are different treatments done by verified aesthetic doctors for specific conditions.

Collagen, in human or animal, is the most abundant protein that makes up most parts of the living body. Collagen is a natural protein, that makes up 70%-80% of our skin dermal layer. Thus, replenishing collagen on our skin becomes essential in order to maintain a youthful look by delaying the signs of aging. While we can’t demand our collagen production to run like when we’re younger, we may, however, induce some collagen to add on to what we have, or cause the body part to produce more collagen. Hence, collagen fillers may be a way to help you regain your youthful looks by “plumping up” your wrinkles and folds. They are also useful in correcting fine lines and wrinkles.
